2016年關渡國際自然藝術季的藝術家現地創作開始啦！今天志工們也加入工作，和藝術家一起觀察基地環境、蒐集素材和腦力激盪。今年的藝術家和志工們歷經田野調查的「魔鬼訓練」果然有效，很快就認出園區裡哪些藤類適合編織、土壤的水分程度怎樣塑型比較不會龜裂、果實花瓣的排列如何構成了繽紛的小小風景…果然有先溫習功課有差喔！第一天開工大家都很興奮，迫不及待要跟大自然好好玩耍一番！

The on-site production of the 2016 artists has started off from today! Our volunteers also joined the creation work by observing the sites, collecting materials, and brainstorming with the artists. Both of the artists and volunteers have undergone “devil trainings” during the field research stage, so they can quickly identify which rattan is good for natural weaving, what percentage of water in the soil makes shaping easily, and how a small scape is being created by just arranging some flower petals and seeds…It is amazing to see how much they’ve been inspired! On the very first working day, everyone looked so excited and couldn’t wait to play with nature!
